  • The Money Mindset Shift Every Woman Needs to Feel Confident Again | 495
    Dec 5 2025

    Check out Carrie's Podcast!

    We’re bringing back one of our all-time favorite convos with our good friend and Diet Disruptor queen, Carrie Lupoli! If you missed it the first time (or need a refresh), get ready for one seriously powerful conversation on how your financial health and physical health go hand-in-hand.

    Carrie has called us her besties for years (aw 🥹), and in this re-air, we finally sat down with her on the mic to talk about how getting your money in check can actually transform your mental clarity, stress levels, and even your relationship with food.


    👯‍♀️ What We Chat About:

    1. The surprising connection between financial stress and health struggles

    2. Why “not knowing what you don’t know” is not your fault—and how to unlearn it

    3. How Carrie and her husband completely shifted their money mindset and now have money left at the end of the month 🙌

    4. What it means to budget like a grown-up without giving up brunch, beauty, or bacon 🍳

    5. Why credit card “points” aren’t doing you any favors (sorry, not sorry 😅)

    6. A simple, automated budgeting system that makes life easier—yes, automagically 🪄

    7. Teaching your kids financial confidence early (Carrie’s 20-year-old is thriving!)
